Summary:Brain injuries are one of the clinical conditions that cause more deaths with numbers rising over 20% worldwide [14]. The company Penumbra R seeks to provide, to the medical community specialized in the diagnosis of Cerebrovascular Accidents (ACV), an automated and objective way that allows the detection of these injuries faster and more safely. Penumbra R supplies quantitative tools that allow specialists to differentiate between ischemic and hemorrhagic lesions, providing an adequate management of the patient in an optimal time for recovery. Based on the state of the art in computer vision, Penumbra R uses advanced algorithms that allow the identification of ischemic and hemorrhagic lesions from cerebral medical images in a short time and with high precision. Penumbra R has advanced tools that allow the clinician to detect characteristics in the neuroimaging with an important prognostic value for the patient.
